چکیده

2014 We present a simple design for obtaining high-intensity, Fourier limited picosecond pulses. A Nd : Yag picosecond laser is used to synchronously pump a dye oscillator/amplifier system. The dye oscillator is of the Littman type. Up to 1.5 mJ of energy is obtained in a 20 ps pulse with a bandwidth of 30 GHz after amplification. Revue Phys. Appl. 20 (1985) 527-530 JUILLET 1985, 1

Pulse Structure Studies and Absolute Cavity Length Determination for a Synchronously Pumped Picosecond Dye Laser

Second harmonic cross correlation functions of a pulse with its near neighbor have been studied in a synchronously pumped cw dye laser. Measurements were made both as a function of dye laser cavity length mismatch and the number of cavity round trips separating the correlated pulses. The pulse envelope is found to have a characteristic interpulse frequency determined by the pump laser, whereas ...

Generation of synchronized trains of picosecond laser pulses at two wavelengths in a single-cavity synchronously mode-locked dye laser

Synchronized trains of picosecond laser pulses of two different wavelengths constitute a powerful tool to study fast processes in materials. In the last several years this scheme was used to study vibrational dephasing of molecular monolayers on surfaces,’ optical nonlinearities in the polydiacetylene PTS conjugated polymer,“‘3 and the solvent dependance of the rotational diffusion of Cresyl Vi...

50-mJ macro-pulses at 1064 nm from a diode-pumped picosecond laser system.

Pulse-picking from a 100-mW cw mode-locked seeder, a hybrid master-oscillator power-amplifier (MOPA) system, based on Nd:YVO4 and Nd:YAG amplifier modules, has been developed, delivering single-pulses of 8.6 ps at 455-MHz repetition-rate, bunched into ~1-μs trains of 50 mJ ("macro-pulses"). The output beam is linearly polarized and nearly diffraction limited up to the maximum macro-pulse repeti...

Ultraviolet Picosecond Pump-probe Spectroscopy with a Synchronously Pumped Dye Laser. Rotational Diffusion of Diphenyl Butadiene

Over the last few years synchronously pumped dye lasers have been used to study a range of relaxation processes [1]. The wide wavelength tunability available gives an important advantage over passively mode-locked systems [2,3] when sub-picosecond time resolution is not required. In order to study smaller molecules more amenable to theoretical description it is important to extend the high repe...

Stable operation of a synchronously pumped colliding-pulse mode-locked ring dye laser.

Pulses of 100-fsec duration are obtained by synchronous pumping of a colliding-pulse ring dye laser with a mode-locked Ar(+)-ion laser. Stable operation of the synchronously pumped colliding-pulse mode-locked laser over hours was obtained by a suitable choice of the distance between the gain and the absorber in combination with an appropriate pump-pulse sequence.
